The Rebelle Rally, an off-road navigation rally for women, has entered into a new partnership with Pennzoil, event officials announced.
As part of the relationship, Pennzoil will support the rally, its collaborative mechanics program, and the training arm of Rebelle known as Rebelle U.
The Rebelle Rally Mechanics program is a pool of mechanics who work on competition vehicles as needed for the entire eight days of competition. Pennzoil will support the staff and provide its products to the team, the company said.
